The Boston Modern Orchestra Project (BMOP), the nation’s leading orchestra dedicated exclusively to performing, commissioning, and recording new music of the 21^st century, honors some of its long-standing cherished collaborations in a special Double Entendre concert at Jordan Hall (30 Gainsborough Street), Saturday, March 29^th @ 8:00pm.A program soaked by artistic influences includes four world premieres: Double Violin Concerto by BMOP’s Composer-in-Residence Lisa Bielawa featuring two of her frequent muses- violinists Colin Jacobsen and Carla Kihlstedt; Clades by Derek Hurst with Boston’s own Firebird Ensemble; On a Sufficient Condition for the Existence of Most Specific Hypothesis by Ken Ueno as throat-singer soloist; and The Conscious Sleepwalker Loops by Argentinian composer Alejandro Rutty.All four works will receive their New York premieres by BMOP at the 10^th Annual MATA Festival in April 2008 in collaboration with MATA (Music at the Anthology, Inc.), the leading global catalyst for emerging composers and contemporary music co-founded by Philip Glass.Both the Bielawa and Ueno works will be recorded for future release on BMOP’s record label, BMOP/sound.
